Theos-Talk Archives (May 2003 Message tt00051)

Dennis:
Thanks for the msg. Until Kessinger recently published Ernest Woods' book 
"Is this theosophy?", it is one of the rarest books and not easily 
available. To me, reading it was very fascinating and informative. From 
what I hear, it was out of favor with organizational followers and that was 
why one did not find it in many theosophical libraries.
